Congress Program

The 8th WCMS scientific program includes
keynote lectures, symposia, podium and poster presentations.

After the congress we will prepare the
8th WCMS proceedings. We intend to publish all
presentations. Authors can submit the papers to the congress
in Word or odt. formats or send it by e-mail
until September 30th. We will send guideline papers soon.

Accommodations in Rio de Janeiro

We selected
a few hotels with a special discount for 8th WCMS
attendants. As Rio de Janeiro is full of events in 2013, to
guarantee those prices, a minimum number of reservations is
required. Because of this we ask you to contact Gayatur (cristina@gayatur.com.br)
to make reservations. We included one hotel in Copacabana
area, but this place is a little far from the venue than the
other suggested ones. Our choice was made considering best
accommodations for a cheaper price. In the vicinity of those
hotels, you can find some others, maybe with lower prices
but with more modest services and accommodations. You’re
free to contact Gayatur or directly search other hotels.

For the selected hotels, you’ll see the
prices for one night and the prices for a full stay
considering the arrival in August 5th to 10th, in order to
attend all congress. If you plan to stay longer, please
inform Gayatur when you make the reservation.

We remind our foreign colleagues to
inquire about the visas. Brazil maintains a policy of
reciprocity in visa requirements. For the majority of
countries nothing special is needed but for residents in
some countries like USA, Canada, Australia, etc.,
bureaucratic procedures and taxes will be requested.
